Trumpeter 01504 1/35 Cougar Model Summary

The Trumpeter 1/35 Canadian Cougar 6x6 AVGP kit recreates the improved Cougar variant used by Canadian units across several decades. It provides a credible representation for hobbyists interested in military vehicle history and realistic model builds.

Operational History and Role

The Cougar AVGP was fielded to perform reconnaissance and light support, prioritising agility over heavy armour. This model emphasises those features through detailed hull lines and a compact turret, giving a clear sense of the vehicle's intended role.

Construction Notes and Presentation

The kit includes finely moulded components that benefit from careful assembly, painting and weathering. Completed models display well in collections focused on late 20th century armoured vehicles and peacekeeping operations.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
  • Part Count: High detail
The kit supplies the main hull, turret and external fittings, though small enhancements can be added with aftermarket parts for extra fidelity.
Plastic cement designed for styrene gives strong bonds; cyanoacrylate glue is useful for tiny or non plastic components.
This kit focuses on external detail; interior fittings are limited, so open hatches may show minimal cabin detail unless upgraded.
Build time varies by skill and finishing choices, but allow several evenings for assembly and additional time for painting and weathering.
Yes, the Cougar's scale and profile make it a strong candidate for dioramas depicting training, patrols or peacekeeping scenes.
